Is there a way to change a deity's name?
« on: March 05, 2020, 11:16:00 pm »

For RP purposes, I tried making a new deity with moddable-gods, but I'm too stupid to figure out how to do that. And even if I could - that wouldn't "feel right".
And to to use rename I need to find a deity's ID, don't know how to do that either tho.

names are id numbers pointing to language file.

Exporting the Legends mode XML may give you the deity id numbers.

I would like to second this question, as

(1) while I've managed to use the moddable-gods command without getting an immediate error (and in Legends Mode it seemed to increment the count of historical figures by one), upon attempting to save the world it always immediately crashes;

and

(2) I can't find any DFHack renaming command that actually works with an ID, rather than having to already be in a screen.  (And being in a deity's legend mode screen doesn't seem to work for dfhack names or dfhack rename)
